Answers:

  • first box =  0.84x
  • second box = 84

=================================================

Explanation:

Think of x - 0.2x as 1x-0.2x. The numbers out front, the 1 and -0.2, combine to 0.8

The 0.8 converts to 80%, meaning that if there's a 20% off sale, then you still have to pay the remaining 80% of the original price.

The 1.05 indicates that we started with 100%, and then add on 5% sales tax, so 100% + 5% = 1 + 0.05 = 1.05

---------------

Simplifying the expression given to us leads to

1.05(x - 0.2x)

1.05(1x - 0.2x)

1.05(0.8x)

(1.05*0.8)x

0.84x

This shows that the final price, after tax, is 84% of the original price.

Aneli [31]

Given: Triangle JKL is dilated from the origin at a scale factor of 10 to create triangle J′K′L′.

Required: Correct option that complete the statement.

Explanation:

Now, triangle is dilated from the origin at a scale factor of 10.

So, the sides will become larger, but angles will remain the same.

Hence, the triangles will be similar as sides will be in proption (SSS rule).

So, The triangles are similar because their corresponding sides are proptional and their corresponding angles are congurent.

Final Answer: Second group is correct answer.

So speed is- 264,000 feet per 3,600 seconds = 264,000 / 3,600 = 73.33 ft per second

line 1 passes through (2,2) and (5,5). line 2 passes through (3,-6) and (-5,2). Are the lines parallel or perpendicular?
Gelneren [198K]
Find the slope of the first line, that is the difference of the y’s over the difference of the x’s. This way: 2-5/2-5=-3/-3 which equals 1
Now find the slope of the second line 2-(-6)/-5-3
=8/-8
=-1
The slopes are opposite reciprocal ( you could also say that the product of the 2 slopes equals -1) therefore the lines are perpendicular.
